Hehe! I do not trust that these are worth $300 with the ridiculously fierce competition in this space at that price. Would love someone to get a review unit though and pit it against all the great Chi-Fi in this price range and below. I honestly haven't been impressed with any Sennheiser IEMs I've tried. I was also unimpressed with the 598 headphones. the HD6XX is pretty special though, so I give them that which leads me to believe their higher end stuff is where the quality is.
And if they are as "comfortable" as T2/T3/T4 lineup it will be a miss for me!
I remember when buying Tin T2 (and getting excited to test them as I had read so many good reviews about them and I really loved their design!... on paper) and trying to put them in my ears!... I kept trying but that's all I could do, never been able to get them in my ear canal as it was so painful!
My poor tight little ear canals will never be loose enough for tins, I'd love to try the p1 if someone can promise me the nozzles aren't extremely thicc, but alas I cannot touch the brand since trying the t2
Yep. MMCX should be deprecated by now. 2-pin is more widely used now and with good reason. MMCX is just asking to be broken within the IEM and not at the cable, so you need to buy new headphones instead of just a cable.
There is nothing intrinsically wrong with MMCX as a connector type. I have both 2-pin and MMCX earphones, haven’t experienced more problems with one or the other. It wouldn’t surprise me if some manufacturer’s chose cheap MMCX connectors which have prematurely failed, but that’s on the manufacturer, not the connector type. I’m all for saying manufacturer’s shouldn’t cheap out on connectors, whatever the type.
Well if they are 3X as good in sound as the IE40pro, then they'd be worth the price of admission, as i have the IE40pro, and they are decent. I have better single dynamics, but it's got that nice Sennheiser sound. They look very similar as well. I'll wait to read the reviews.
Hallelujah!!! WOW! I received my brand spankin' new Sony A55 to basically upgrade and replace my A45, and i put in the Mr Walkman firmware and holy smokes, it immediately elevated the sound to the level of my Hiby R5!! The features and sound improved, and leaves the sound of my A45 in the dust. apparently i can also use this firmware for my A45, so i'm going to do that, though even with exFAT, it will only read up to 256GB chips, so i'll probably just upload the firmware, then retire it with my other old ass Sony's. The sound of the A55 now is incredibly wide, spacious, airy, with very articulate and punchy bass, with extended but very controlled highs. Extremely transparent, like the Hiby. It's even thinner and smaller than the A45. I'm so glad I didn't buy the android run A105 or higher Sony. The battery is going to last way longer, and I imagine the sound can't get much better for the money, so i'm extremely satisfied and now I get to keep going into yet another decade with the sony house sound in my ears.
Apparently this can be done with simply taping the side vent according to Banbeucmas. Never seen anyone else do this... I expected that to do something but I think I massively underestimated the sheer effect of putting some tape... Wonder if a piece of cotton would produce some inbetween.
